Doctor's answer:

Hello, the Down syndrome screening is mainly to assess the risk of the fetus developing Down syndrome. If the risk is high, it is best to undergo an amniocentesis to rule it out. Currently, the risk of Down syndrome is close to high risk. We suggest getting a new test to check if the risk is high and it is recommended to undergo an amniocentesis to rule it out. We suggest you consult your doctor for a detailed examination to see if they also recommend other tests.
